**Poor Things** - A Yorgos Lanthimos film. For many of you, this is all that is needed by way of description (for both “I gotta see this” and “I am never going to see this”). He’s like Wes Anderson, except for more body horror, gore, and explicit sex than Wes. 😬

I enjoyed this one, it’s got the usual deadpan characters and black humor in a steampunk setting. More along the lines of _The Lobster_ than _The Favourite_. Not for everyone, but will not disappoint fans.
